She ALSO had work done on her face!

Of course that's not as bad as the old Liz Taylor perfume ads. I swear they put vaseline on the camera lens, lol.

Some women are just lucky and have great genes. My husband's mother is 85 and could pass for 65. When she was 65, she could pass for 50. Living healthy helps too. She's never smoked, drank or sunbathed.

I know what you are saying Janice. Good skin and a healthy lifestyle is the first thing to keeping one's skin looking good and feeling great. I don't smoke, I only socially drink and when it comes to the sun, I make sure my face is covered with sunscreen or some protection. Seeing many women in California who tan themselves to death only brings on eventually that tanned leathery appearance and aged skin, especially on the face.

Everyone thought how beautiful Farrah was back in the days...HA! look at what all that sun did to her! HORRIBLE. Jaclyn Smith has always been protective of her skin and she looks BEAUTIFUL. Who would've thought the "supposed most beautiful Charlie's Angel" would end up looking like sh*t?

That's true. My husband's and his ex-wife lived in a house on the beach. She just about baked in the sun, putting on baby oil and cocoa butter. He told me that he used to warn her all the time that she was going to get skin cancer. They split in 1982, she moved to Texas and remarried.

Well, his premonition was right, about four years ago, she was diagnosed with malignant melanoma, stage IV. She died three years ago, at age 56. The sun is your enemy, without protection.

OMG how horrible. Yet, so sad she didn't heed the warnings. When someone dies because of something they could have prevented, it seems like such a waste of a life. You might as well have committed suicide.
